You know what happened to the real Spartans don't you? They all died in vain.

If you call become a legendary hero whose names live on in infamy dying in vain maybe.

Of course, instead of routing for these famous warriors you can choose to cheer for a weasel instead. Also known as a glutton (how appropriate given all the punishment they have taken) or a skunk bear (perhaps named for all those nasty UofM girls).

BTW - did you know as of Feb of this year they are being considered to be covered under the Endangered Species protection act. This could be hastened after facing the #1 ranked defense in the country on Saturday.

Then again, Wolverines do have powerful anal scent glands so perhaps you can use that to your advantage.

Good luck this weekend little sister!!!

Name 1 of them. And it is not possible for us to be your little sister, when you are our little brother. But, heck, little kids to get confused from time to time.

King Leonidas for one, did you not see 300? And it is possible, did you ever see a "little" brother who is younger but much bigger than his older sister? She is still little to him.

So after Michigan gets blown out by Ohio State, people will finally realize that Hoke is a fraud.

You do realize that half of this years team still consists of worthless RichRod players don't you?

Next years team is the team that crosses the tipping point between RichRod's teams and Hoke's teams.

I, personally, think Hoke has worked miracles with the garbage RichRod left behind.

Re: UofM vs. MSU

That's such garbage. This is year 3. The "cupboard was bare" excuse no longer applies. Obviously, Rich Rod didn't leave him with the worst players, otherwise he wouldn't have been able to go 11-2 with Rich Rod's guys in the first year. How come other coaches at other major programs turned them around in a season or less? Urban Meyer instantly went undefeated with OSU, despite coming off a 6-7 season; Saban had one bad year at Bama, then turned them into a powerhouse. Players stay 3-5 years, there's a high turnover. This isn't like the NBA or the NFL where it can take years to rebuild.

Borges is an absolute joke. Yeah, let's call another play action instead of a screen or a draw. That series was Gardner was sacked three times in a row was literally surreal. Why can't a single running back pass block? Youth? Every team has youth, the Heisman trophy winner last year was a redshirt freshman.

Hoke is hardly a coach. He doesn't even wear a headset. He doesn't make calls on game day. He never should've been hired in the first place. Go on neutral NCAA boards, fans from other teams realize that he's a buffoon. Even OSU fans are starting to get concerned at how pathetic Michigan has become.

This is a bad football team that will probably finish 7-5 (maybe 6-6) and lose to OSU 48-14 or something absurd.

Re: UofM vs. MSU

Not to take a shot at Michigan or their fans because even though I'm a state can I have a ton of respect for that program, but why do I hear michigan fans every single year say "wait til next year"? I mean, you can only brag about your recruits so much, recruits don't put w's on the board.

This may be his 3rd year as coach. But, he only has 2 years of his recruits currently on this team. He was hired too late in the recruiting process before his first season to get anyone but the guys RichRod recruited. Meyers Had a stocked team that he took over from Sweatervest. The only reason they went 6-7 the previous season is because of all the suspensions and the off field distractions. Saban is a recruiting magnet. If he were to Leave Alabama and go coach Alcorn State, the top recruits would suddenly want to play at Alcorn State. This game was lost because of the Offensive line being very, very, OFFENSIVE. Taylor Lewan's draft stock just plummeted at least a round from this game because he stunk so bad. The whole O-line needs to lose their Scholarships.

Hoke inherited a decent Offense and a pathetic defense. He has performed miracles in making Chicken Soup out of Chicken Poop. But, you will not see it that way because you were pro RichRod and against Hoke from the start. So, go ahead and use the few loses as your platform for trying to prove that you were right.

Re: UofM vs. MSU

Rich Rod made many, many mistakes, but was never given a fair chance of success (he was heavily sabotaged internally and by the local media). I wanted him to get one more year, and if he would've gotten it, Michigan probably would've went 12-1, and he'd still be here. We would've gotten Dee Hart and who knows what the program would be like today.

But that's in the past; it's totally irrelevant. Instead, we're retooling to go back to manball, and being terrible along the way. Getting spanked by little brother, and we won't even be competitive against OSU. Best case scenario, Hoke is a worse version of Llyod Carr, and that's being generous. Forget ever going to a NCG. It was obvious when he was hired, and it's even more obvious now. University of Mediocrity. It's shameful.

Re: UofM vs. MSU

total domination to the point of embarrassment. I actually feel very bad for this once proud program. What Bo must think?

Rich Rod, destroyed himself with his pourous non existent defense. If he could have figured out how to hire a DC, field a strong defense, and still run that kind of an offense, you'd have well OSU. But now U of M, is in the middle of an overhaul from spread, back to road graders and smash football. Last year they tried to blend their pro program with the spread talent, each year consecutively struggled more than the year before as they made more adjustments. This year you have 3 of 5 OL are freshmen, or new on the line. Just like the Lions, there's no chemistry or experience and so they're pourous. DG does not have the experience after playing 8 games last year, and all of this season. He's doing a Scott Mitchell right now...

It is what it is, and unless Mich could have been like OSU and only needed to replace a coach and not the entire deal, they might still be up there in the rankings. Now we have to stay the course, take our lumps and let you gloat for the time being, but in the end, who OWNS the better record between schools and why? It would take MSU 30 years of winning to tie up or surpass the ownership that has been the truth for YEARS.

So you can keep beating your gums, and flapping your tongues, but in the end, the HISTORICAL records says it all. For what it's worth, you'll still be Green with envy, and have a chip on your shoulder because of your junior status.

Oh and Pablo, it's my understanding that MSU doesn't need a grounds crew because they let their cheer leaders graze on the field...
